First Time In A Long Time

First Time In A Long Time

Verse 1

I've been down, I have felt low

Spun around not knowing where to go

There was no place I could call home

I've been sick, I have felt weak

Stayed in bed for countless weeks

I was slowly losing my will to live

Now I have found it

Verse 2

I had no friends, had no family

Everything was all about me

Now I have people as a part of my life

I had people as a part of my life

I had no hope, had no faith

I felt as if I was out of place

I waited all this long

Now I feel like I belong

Bridge

Everything old is new again

I'm able to live again

Chorus

I smiled for the first time

I cried for the first time

I laughed for the first time in a long time

I can't remember when I last felt this way

I have never felt so alive
